Dear Working Group members

At its meeting on 17 August 2016 the Working Group concluded that there was a need to convene a sub-team to review the issue of Optional mediation and put forward an outline proposal for consideration by WG. Staff would therefore invite those who would be interested in participating in this sub-team to respond to this email and we will begin the process of establishing the sub-team.

We would kindly request that you send us any responses by 0900 UTC 24 August 2016

Please note that Petter Rindforth has already kindly volunteered for this sub-team.

Kind regards,

David Tait
